A touching photo of a teen's coffin with special messages written on it is quickly going viral.

Laura from Burlington was a high school senior when she passed away after a long battle with Leukaemia. Her friends and family left her these messages on her coffin.Rest in Peace Laura - #TuckerintheMorning

Laura Hillier, an 18-year-old from Ontario, Canada, was completely cancer-free for approximately four years after her first battle with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) but relapsed in May of 2015. Though Laura was able to achieve remission for a second time, she relapsed again in November 2015 and was not able to get a transplant bed in time. She died on January 20, 2016.

The photo shows her wooden coffin filled with colorful messages. Some shares on social media suggest these are yearbook messages to Lauren because she never got her yearbook. However, friends and family have confirmed that Lauren did receive her yearbook, but that the messages left on her coffin were "equally full of love".
